Members, be aware that the FA made changes this summer to the timings of games for u11, u13 & u15’s from
Previous seasons - so please note the reduced times for a game now which should be being adopted by all the youth leagues 👍⚽️

Ignore the highlighted part, this came about when a club u15s contacted us stating the ref had said 40 mins each way.

Good to be aware! Members notified ✅⚽️
